For the past five years, Brewster Sand and Gravel has consistently delivered high-quality materials…read moreto my home and job sites across the Outer Cape, including driveway stone, gravel, shell, and mulch. Best of all, they're a local company. Their dispatch team is a pleasure to work with, and their drivers are skilled, punctual, and friendly. I highly recommend them to homeowners and property managers throughout the Cape.

I spontaneously bought a garden plot at the community garden this year. I might as well have…read morespontaneously bought a human baby, I'm so clueless. But the internet told me I needed compost, so I was determined to get compost. Unfortunately, the internet is very vague about how one gets compost, unless you're making your own. Then the internet is happy to give you all sorts of advice. Thus I found myself googling, "where to get compost on cape cod." Brewster Sand & Gravel was the first choice. Once I got on B&G's website, I got a better idea of what I was looking for. Plus they have nifty yardage calculators so you can figure out exactly how much of whatever you need. I compared them to other sites and the prices looked reasonable, so I made up a little list of questions and prepared to make first compost contact. There is a physical building somewhere, but they're in Eastham (why does it say Brewster? Why???) so I just called. I left a message and got a call back within the hour. The girl on the phone (Amber maybe?) was SO awesomely nice. She made me feel comfortable, she answered all my questions, she was upfront. Honestly, after one phone conversation I knew I was going to buy from them, based on customer service alone. I ended up ordering some obscene amount of compost for delivery (I was splitting with a friend. Delivery fee was $40). Nice phone woman and I figured out the date and time that best worked for me and sure enough, that Saturday an adorable little construction truck came lumbering up the Harwich Community Garden path, loaded with a pile of beautiful dark screened leaf 'post. (can I call it 'post? does that make me sound cool?) The delivery guy was awesome too. He was so friendly, especially considering I had reached my neurotic threshold and was basically staring wide-eyed and shrugging when he asked where to dump it. He even split the load so half of it got dumped near my garden plot, then the rest was dumped near my friend's plot! I offered him a tip and he turned it down, saying, "You use that money to buy yourself some nice plants." Omg. Like I said, the compost they sent is rich and dark and beautiful. It spread wonderfully and my plants are loving it. I've already recommended B&G to several people at the Community Garden... bcs they saw my compost and asked about it!

The gal said, oh A**** does a good job, just a mistake. She completely blew it off. I have spent hundreds of dollars here over the years and wonder how much I was overcharged and didn't notice. Make sure you keep track of what they ring up. If one of their "good" employees doesn't know the difference between a perennial and an herb, what are the others charging you for?

We frequent garden centers everywhere we go and there is none finer that I've found than Beacon…read moreGardens. The plants are phenomenal both in quality and quantity. The staff are very knowledgeable. We participated in two classes, learning a lot and getting answers to several perplexing garden issues. Their expert gardeners were very friendly and eagerly shared their knowledge with us. We learned that many landscapers, including Chatham Bars, source their plants from Beacon Gardens. The prices are very reasonable and are in line with other centers. Given the outstanding quality of the plants Beacon offers, this is a great value!

Just want to shout from the rooftops how wonderful this place is!…read more Today I stopped by for the first time this summer and found a plastic sort of used pot I wanted for a specific reason. I went to the counter to ask to buy it even though I knew it was not an item of their inventory. I was asked to show the salesperson where I found it, and as I showed her she said, "oh just take it, it's not worth anything and we have plenty of them, just take it!" That kind of understanding of the customer and her needs is the most valuable skill ! I shall be back tomorrow and from now on and I will be BuYIiNG! I'm going to attach a photo of why I needed the old plastic container.
